Thanks! Eh, seems to depend on where you're looking. I'm looking at the southern end which is slightly more reasonable, as in, $1500 for not quite a shithole, at least for the time being. Up in Ballard or Capitol Hill or some of the trendier spots, completely agree. While I agree that Seattle does coffee, I will say that some of the best cups (very subjective, I know) have come from places not named Seattle. That said there's a stupid amount of depth to the coffee scene here. re: coffee, yeah I'm not finding anything that would point more towards anything beyond coffee enthusiasts, which is great, but not exactly what I'm looking for. La Marzocco does events every so often, that's as far as I've got. There's also Stumptown Cuppings every day and those are always a good time and way to meet people who roast/whatever else.Be ready to spend $1500/mo minimum for a shithole.
